BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Field of the Invention

A young male's urinal and convertible base step stool is shown for use in the toilet training of young males in the standing position. This urinal is adaptable to attach to its own base, and to the toilet seat of a toilet bowl. An important feature of this urinal is the rounded dome shaped top portion of urinal, which is designed to assist in preventing young males urinating mishaps. The base which the urinal attaches to, converts to a two step stepping stool when flipped over, and removable attachment piece is removed.

The present invention relates to a urinal for training young males to urinate in the standing position, and combined urinal base and stepping stool for child's multipurpose use. This urinal is adaptable to be attached to its own base, and to be inserted to sit on top of a toilet seat of toilet bowl. Moreover this urinal base may be converted when flipped over to a 2 step stepping stool, with the base structure supporting removable piece detached from said base.

The objective of current invention is to provide tidy assurance to parents while their young male child potties alone. Parents can rest assure that with the current invention they would have little to no urine accidents to clean up. This relates to prior urinals in that it provides young boys standing position training, nonetheless; none of the prior arts are adaptable to their own standing base, as well as the toilet bowl seat. Prior arts do not provide coverage for urine that may go in the upward direction, due to young males holding their genital in the upward direction. The current art not only addresses the upward direction of urine flow, it also provides coverage of urine flowing in all direction, downward, straight, left, and right direction as well. The current invention accomplishes both attractiveness to young males to want to use, as well as provides proper toilet training to them.
